Oildale, CA, 12-25-2017
Monday: Good
morning, once more, it is your aged but much-beloved host (or so I tell
myself). As a Jew, everyone who does not
already know me assumes I am liberal as many Jews are, which seems rather
strange as liberal Jews quite typically find fault with Israel whereas the few
conservative Jews such as me do not.
When I was younger, I was quite
liberal as that is how the world of academia orbits, it orbits around pseudo-Marxists
and true Marxists and not around the classical definition of liberalism,
meaning a philosophy in which the seeking of knowledge reigned supreme.

Today is Christmas Day, a
day of love and joy for Christians, a
day that my family and I celebrate just as we do Hanukkah, which just concluded,
as our family is mixed and has both Christians and Jews living within its
welcoming folds in harmony. Besides,
whether you believe that today is the birth of the Christian Savior and the Son
of God or you do not, there is something
glorious about the spirit of the holiday, which makes it worth celebrating.

If one spends time online
as I now do because at my age, I do not have a great many pursuits other than
donating my time to this blog and filling in when others seek time off, one
knows that on Facebook and Google Plus, there is constant
Christian-bashing.

Some of the memes are hateful
showing disrespect for Jesus in ways that are rather crude and rude. One sees memes attacking Judaism, too, but
seldom does one ever see any meme
insulting the worst religion on the planet, Islam.

To me, Islam is a phony faith built atop bloodshed and
violence, a bullshit one, if ever one existed.
In my view, if Islam wants to
be considered a true faith built on a
platform of love and not of global conquest, rape, pillage, and murder, then
the ‘faith’ requires undergoing a ‘reformation’ of sorts through which, it can
throw off the violent shroud cloaking it in faux legality.

Saying something such as
this can turn one into a target for the ‘decapitators,’ you know, the folks who
like getting the cameras up and going, then bring out some poor schlub who had
the misfortune of criticizing the so-called ‘religion of peace’ and then
drawing the blade across his throat.

In no other civilized
part of the world would one EVEN consider a barbaric
religion such as this one to exist, yet it seems to be spreading with the
virulence of anal fissures, transforming the lives of all with whom it comes in
contact and not in a merry way.

Friends, today, we can
‘live and let live,’ for the time being; however, at some point, civilized men
and women will have to come to grips with these barbarous schmoes as otherwise,
they will come for us.

Furthermore, this is my Hanukkah
and Christmas message to civilized folks and that is, we are going to stand together,
or we will die together, there is no in-between when it comes to dealing with
monsters.

As for the dummies who
find pleasure in insulting Christians and Jews, WHY NOT go after the REAL
enemy, the Muslims? Go ahead and make
fun of them and give them your address, I would love to see what they do to YOU
and your family.

Merry Christmas, folks,
we will meet here tomorrow at 12:01 A.M.
